xen-blkfront: Provide for 'feature-flush-cache' the BLKIF_OP_WRITE_FLUSH_CACHE operation.
The operation BLKIF_OP_WRITE_FLUSH_CACHE has existed in the Xen tree header file for years but it was never present in the Linux tree because the frontend (nor the backend) supported this interface. Signed-off-by: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>

|

* is worthwhile for the frontend to attempt flushes. If a backend does
|

* not recognise BLKIF_OP_WRITE_FLUSH_CACHE, it should *not* create the
|
